ELO 1 issues?

[jmatkins]

OK, so I will ge the fine details out of the way. I ahve 2 coolidors with 65% HF beads in them with a temp around 65.



So I bought a pack of ELO1 cigars from NHC. I have now smoked 3 of them and I seem to have to keep a tourch to it, it seems to just not stay lit. Am I just having some really bad or are anyone else having any issues with the ELO's.


Thanks,

I finely started to dry box mine the night before and it helped me with this issue as well. Give that a shot.

These need to be dry boxed.

Me too....The ELO's and T52's are automatically dry boxed.

This wrapper seems to take a big longer to come down in humidity, so just dry box a day prior to smoking, or wait another 6 weeks before smoking one, and see how they are doing.

I pretty much dry box everything I smoke for a day or two, even though I keep my humi around 63-65%

I second dry boxing method! As previously mentioned all of my t52s go straight into the dry box before smoking.

Smoking an ELO 1 right out of my 65% humidor and it has required a few touch ups to the wrapper to keep it burning. It's so minimal I would not consider it a problem.

BTW, This stick is amazing!
